[HECnet] BLISS question

Tim, I have three pdf files: - BLISS for C programmers - this comes from the Freeware cd's - VAX-11 BLISS-32 User's Guide - BLISS reference manual All three together, zip-ed are 14.6 MB, I can mail them if you like. Thanks for solving the starlet riddle!

It's been a long time (1980-ish) since I'd last seen it and I wanted to refresh (well, actually update) my knowledge of that language. Now the primer refers to TUTIO.R32, which I found on a VAX. However I want to play with it on an Alpha (runs cooler than the VAX). After installing the BLISS kit that is on the freeware CD's there still was no STARLET.L32 (nor STARLET.L64) file in SYS$LIBRARY. TUTIO.R32 refers to STARLET.L32 so how do I get it? You can to the right place, there are not many of us (BLISS programmers) left. TUTIO.R32 might not be anywhere in the kits. I'm pretty sure I have it floating around (I'll go have a look). As for creating the libraries, you can use: $ BLISS/LIBRARY=SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB] SYS$LIBRARY:STARLET.REQ $ BLISS/LIBRARY=SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB] SYS$LIBRARY:LIB.REQ That will give you the 32-bit stuff. For the 64-bit, you need to add in the right qualifier. For Alpha it is BLISS/A64 and for Itanium it is BLISS/I64. Incidentally, if you ever decide you don't want those BLISS manuals, you are more than welcome to send them my way. I have a small collection of manuals, books and internal DEC training material on this stuff. I'm hoping to get most of it on-line real soon now (http://bliss-lang.org when it is eventually done...).
